Sponsorship Opportunities
World-Class Business Events LBCG produces world-class, content-led business events where relevant content, created with a specific job function in mind, is at the heart of every conference program. All our events deliver high-value, practical and technical information, gathered through detailed consultation and research with industry representatives. The end result is a highly focused agenda, meeting the precise business needs of a given industry on a given subject. This level of detail is part of our pioneering approach to content and ensures we attract only the highest level of attendees to our events. Providing Solutions To Real-World Issues Good networking opportunities and excellent speakers All of LBCG s events are research driven and 100% solution based. Speakers are practitioners drawn from industry and provide insightful coverage of high-stake issues and shared business challenges no sales pitches or generic company overviews are allowed resulting in a highly engaged audience of senior decision makers, who are keenly interested in the relevant technology, services and innovations that match the content of the agenda. The focused nature of an LBCG event results in superb networking opportunities for delegates, speakers, sponsors and exhibitors alike. There are ample opportunities to meet other attendees during the breaks, lunches and evening drinks reception, and have quality conversations with prospects. Attendees will spend their networking time in a dedicated, zoned exhibition showcase area that features the very latest technological advances that are instrumental to the subject of the event. Solution providers are therefore part of a select group in the categories most relevant to delegates specific interests, resulting in unique stand-out that you simply won t find at a larger, more general show. This is the defining point of our value proposition. Case Study Great job on the event. We enjoyed working with you, your team, the hotel and the attendees. The Canadian Frac Sand Logistics and Market Forecast Summit was excellent for Quickthree Solutions to both exhibit and attend! Thank you to you and your team for making it fun and a successful event The size of the event was just right. Along with interesting topics and speakers, there were plenty of opportunities to spend quality time with colleagues and customers. Thank you for making it fun and a successful event. Well done!

Making The Most Of Our Exclusive Options We offer a top-quality range of exclusive opportunities to our sponsors. This includes hosting of a breakfast, lunch, evening reception or speakers dinner to larger-scale, exclusive sponsorships where we incorporate a thought-leadership speaking position or keynote panel opportunity. This helps you make the most of the event and meet your defined business objectives. Category-specific options align a sponsor with a specific technology, service or area of innovation and provide the opportunity to be seen as the leading vendor in that category. These packages may also include a client case study or presentation where it adds value for delegates. How Can We Get This Event To Work For You? Our sales process is consultative and ROI-driven, so the first thing we will do is to try to understand your objectives before building a business case for your participation. There are a number of packages to suit all levels of involvement and budget, plus the opportunity to add on a range of extra components. To ensure the delivery of a clear business case that delivers value for your organisation, we will consult with you to ask: What are your key business objectives? What value do they represent? How can we really get this event to work for you? Once we have established your business aims, our team will ask more tactical questions to help you gain the most from our event, including: What has worked well for you at previous events? How do you like to go about building new business relationships? We will then work with you to create a bespoke sponsorship package to meet your exact business needs. Great speakers, very informative conference Case Study As ABB, we have benefited from the opportunities that have been made while exhibiting and sponsoring the Global Leakage Summit through LBCG. In the past seven years, this well-organised and presented event has gone from strength to strength, now attracting more than 200 quality international and domestic delegates from a variety of senior roles within the global leakage and flow community. We are proud to be associated with the Global Leakage Summit and LBC With a host of new technologies and ideas from within the R&D areas on show and sharing of global best practice, it s established itself in the global calendar as a Leakage Summit for all. We as ABB are proud to be associated with the Global Leakage Summit and LBCG in 2015. We look forward to raising awareness at the Summit about the work of WaterAid across the world and the great support they provide in clean water and sanitation globally.

Case Study The ideal aspect of LBCG events as a sponsor is the strict control over the amount of vendors/sponsors there are and any content they present. The fact that LBCG events are so geared towards complex, timely oilfield topics, rather than networking and vendors, means that the true decision makers in the segment being addressed are so much more likely to attend. As a sponsor, those are the toughest people to reach but they attend LBCG events because the content is so incredibly relevant to their missions in the oilfield. Our attendance at the most recent show in Denver led to a several new contracts and new business from existing customers in excess of $25 million. Our attendance led to new business from existing customers in excess of $25 million In my 22 year career in the energy industry, I have never experienced a better value and return on my sponsorship dollar than what we experienced through sponsorship of that show. We are excited to be a sponsor at the upcoming Eagle Ford event where I am confident we will extract a similarly high value. You and your colleagues should be extremely proud of your business model certainly you have convinced me.
